Product details
Overview
IRSM516-076DA2 from Infineon Technologies is a 600V, 4A 3-phase integrated power module (IPM) for small-appliance motor drives, featuring trench IGBTs with 1.7V max VCE(sat) at 25°C/1A, 1900VRMS isolation, and 3.3V logic-compatible inputs. It integrates six high-voltage gate drivers, bootstrap circuitry, under-voltage lockout per channel, and open-emitter outputs for shunt current sensing in fan and pump inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRSM516-076DA2 datasheet, IRSM516-076DA2 pinout, IRSM516-076DA2 application, or IRSM516-076DA2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V blocking voltage, 4A DC output rating, matched propagation delay (<1.5µs), dV/dt-optimized EMI performance, and DIP23A package compatibility with industrial motor control PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The IRSM516-076DA2 implements three independent half-bridge HVICs driving 600V trench IGBTs with integrated bootstrap diodes and UVLO protection on all six channels. Its input filter provides shoot-through immunity, and propagation delays are tightly matched across phases to ensure balanced PWM timing in sensorless BLDC control.
Unlike the IRSM506-076 variant, it omits the NTC thermistor (pin 11 = NC), simplifying thermal monitoring architecture while retaining identical electrical specs, isolation rating (1900VRMS, 1min), and operating junction temperature range (–40°C to 150°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE(sat) max | 1.7V @ 25°C, 1A - enables low conduction loss in compact 4A motor inverters |
| VCES/VRRM | 600V - supports 480V DC bus operation with margin for voltage transients |
| IO (DC) | 4.0A per IGBT - rated for continuous operation in energy-efficient appliance pumps |
| VISO | 1900VRMS, 1min - meets reinforced insulation requirements for Class II appliances |
| Propagation delay | <1.5µs (TON/TOFF) - ensures precise phase alignment in 20kHz PWM motor control |
| Logic interface | 3.3V compatible - interfaces directly with MCU GPIO without level-shifting |
| dV/dt immunity | Optimized trade-off - reduces EMI without sacrificing switching speed or efficiency |
Pinout & Package
IRSM516-076DA2 uses a 23-pin DIP23A through-hole package with creepage/clearance optimized for high-voltage motor drive PCBs. Pin 11 is Not Connected (NC), distinguishing it from the thermistor-equipped IRSM506-076DA2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 COM | Logic ground reference | Common return for all low-side driver logic and input signals |
| 2 VB1–VB3 | High-side floating supply | Provides isolated gate drive voltage for U/V/W upper IGBTs via bootstrap |
| 4,9,14 HIN1–HIN3 | High-side logic inputs | 3.3V-tolerant PWM inputs controlling upper IGBTs of each phase |
| 5,10,15 LIN1–LIN3 | Low-side logic inputs | Directly drive lower IGBTs; support dead-time insertion via external logic |
| 17 V+ | DC bus positive terminal | Connects to 480V DC link; internal IGBTs switch between V+ and COM |
| 18,21,23 U/VS1–W/VS3 | Phase outputs | Deliver switched AC to motor windings; support high-side floating supply offset |
| 19–22 VR1–VR3 | Low-side emitter terminals | Enable single-shunt or leg-shunt current sensing with open-emitter configuration |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bootstrap diodes | Eliminates external bootstrap capacitors and diodes, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| Matched propagation delay | Ensures <1.5µs timing skew across all six gate drivers for balanced 3-phase commutation |
| Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) | 10.9V threshold with 0.2V hysteresis per channel prevents erratic switching during brownout |
| Open-emitter outputs | Supports flexible current sensing topologies including single-shunt and per-leg shunt configurations |
| Rugged dV/dt design | Minimizes false triggering in noisy motor environments while maintaining fast switching transitions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-phase motor drive applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRSM506-076DA2 | Includes integrated NTC thermistor (pin 11 active); otherwise identical electrical specs and pinout | Required where real-time junction temperature monitoring is needed for thermal derating or fault protection | Select IRSM506-076DA2 only if closed-loop thermal management is implemented; otherwise IRSM516-076DA2 reduces cost and routing complexity |
| FAM600R012PF | 650V/6A SiC MOSFET-based IPM; higher efficiency but requires gate driver redesign and higher VGS drive | Suitable for high-efficiency premium appliances targeting >95% system efficiency at light load | Choose FAM600R012PF only when upgrading to SiC for efficiency gains justifies full gate drive and layout requalification |
Compared with IRSM506-076DA2, the IRSM516-076DA2 removes thermal sensing overhead while preserving identical motor drive capability; versus FAM600R012PF, it offers drop-in compatibility with legacy 15V gate drive and lower system-level qualification risk for cost-sensitive appliance programs.

FAQ
What is the maximum DC bus voltage supported by IRSM516-076DA2?
The IRSM516-076DA2 supports a recommended maximum DC bus voltage of 480V, derived from its 600V VCES rating with 20% design margin. Absolute maximum VCE is 600V, but sustained operation above 480V risks accelerated degradation under thermal stress and transient overvoltage conditions.
Does IRSM516-076DA2 require external bootstrap capacitors?
No - the IRSM516-076DA2 integrates bootstrap diodes internally, eliminating the need for external bootstrap diodes. However, external 0.1µF ceramic bootstrap capacitors per phase (VBx to VSx) are still required to maintain stable high-side gate drive voltage during PWM operation.
How does the open-emitter configuration benefit current sensing?
The open-emitter outputs (VR1–VR3) allow direct connection of low-side shunt resistors between each emitter and COM, enabling accurate phase current measurement without high-side sensing challenges. This supports both single-shunt (shared resistor) and per-leg shunt topologies with minimal signal conditioning.
Is IRSM516-076DA2 RoHS compliant and UL certified?
Yes - IRSM516-076DA2 is RoHS compliant and UL certified under File Number E252584. It meets industrial qualification standards, has MSL3 moisture sensitivity (SOP23 variant), and supports reinforced insulation per UL 60730-1 requirements for motor control applications.
